wildlife camera is your best bet really. Make it too noticeable and theyl just nick that with the solar pannel too! you can get 4g ones.


shop around abit though prices change alot.
 
There are some good cameras out there. I am a fan of Spypoint, as you can make some good configurations - with cellular connectivity, solar power, and long range antennas. Their "dark" range of cameras ensure that the IR illuminators are not visible, making it very difficult to spot them.


There used to be a good video on YouTube for disguising trail cameras, but I just checked it and it is now "private". It simply entails find a spot where you are going to locate the camera - get the same type of bark or other foliage from somewhere else, and hot glue it to camera (and straps). Obviously not blocking the lens, IR illuminators, and any opens/fastenings.

The less you have to interact with the camera after you have installed it, the better. Draws less attention and reduces any disturbance to the camouflage. So cellular and solar is best if possible. Though the price tends to go up.

Most tend to work on O2 network, so check your signal before you buy, though some roam to use the best available network.

Some places to buy:


In my opinion, checking the SD card every few days is a waste of time. It may help identify the perpetrators who have long gone but, if possible, you want to stop the incident in the first place.

Like others have said it could get broken
 
Hi, wondered if the issues have stopped or not?

My company Scope intelligence solutions LTD deal with this type of issue. We fit out cameras and remotely monitor to build up surveillance/evidence logs to hand over to police for convictions.

Would this be of interest?

If your looking to mount trail cams high up in trees where they are out of reach and sight check out Spy High Mounting systems.

If you think they might be of interest drop me a PM for price
